The trick on this 50 metre (150 ft) sand dune was to go over the top fast enough to get the car airborne. This meant hitting the bottom of the dune at about 80kph (50mph) and powering up and over. |
If, like me in the beige car, you had failure of nerve and lifted the
right foot too soon you would get stuck on top. Sadly, this particular dune has now been closed to vehicular traffic but is still great for sand boarding. |
